Hotel Carlton building, Heritage hotel in Plaza Moyúa, Bilbao, Spain
The Hotel Carlton features a triangular structure with a central hall illuminated by a leaded glass dome measuring 140 square meters in size.
The building, designed by architect Manuel María Smith in 1919, opened its doors in 1926 and served as the Basque Government headquarters during the Spanish Civil War.
The Salón Luis García Campos retains the original presidential table and the sole stained glass window that endured through the Spanish Civil War period.
The establishment contains 140 rooms across 6 floors, situated near the Guggenheim Museum and the Museum of Fine Arts in central Bilbao.
Hidden vents at the main entrance lead to an underground bunker that protected the Basque Cabinet during wartime operations.
